Property Value
Remarks
Standard SMTP protocol based on TCP/IP, all email servers support this protocol, Exchange Server also supports SMTP protocol. Using SMTP protocol is always recommended.
Exchange WebDAV is a set of methods based on the HTTP protocol to manage users, messages in Microsoft Exchange Server. We can use HTTP or HTTP/HTTPS protocol to send email with Exchange WebDAV instead of SMTP protocol. But since Exchange 2007, WebDAV service is disabled by default, so we only suggest that you use WebDAV protocol in Exchange 2000/2003.
Exchange Web Services (EWS), an alternative to the MAPI protocol, is a documented SOAP based protocol introduced with Exchange Server 2007. We can use HTTP or HTTPS protocol to send email with Exchange Web Services (EWS) instead of SMTP protocol. We only suggest that you use EWS protocol in Exchange 2007/2010 or later version.
